Can i use partial replacement of cement with Calcium bentonite in concrete to increase the strength properties?

Calcium bentonite is a kind of expansive clay which tends to increase the volume up to 9 % when we add some water to it. As per my knowledge, increase of strength is occurs as a result internal...
